The elf of my dreams 🧝🏼♀️📝 Ever since the Lord of the Rings trilogy came out in the cinema, I have been fascinated by that world of fantasies that Mr. J.R.R. Tolkien and knew how to bring the great Peter Jackson to the big screen. I even had the opportunity to read one of Tolkien's novels called "The Silmarillion" and I started reading "The Fellowship of the Ring" but couldn't finish it. What's this all about? In recent months I was watching the movie "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" and my daughter was struck by the character of Legolas, characterized by Orlando Bloom and was fascinated by the incredible skills that he showed in battle. She decided to make her version of Legolas in female, according to her the elf of her dreams, then she showed them her work:
As a mother, I am proud that she shows skills in illustration, everything she has learned so far has been self-taught since I do not have enough monetary funds to enroll her in courses, but from time to time I make an effort to buy material for her drawing and boost your talent. I await your comments, likes or if you want to give your contribution to support this young talent and continue to encourage herself to be better, I will give you my eternal gratitude. I wait for you in my next post. *P.S: The photos are my property, taken from my phone camera.*

Continue your talent. You are doing great in it. Keep it up, gorgeous. 🤩
Thanks for your comment
No problem. 👍🏻✌️
She's a talented girl miss Aleja. I am really enjoying looking at this, can you tell me more about why it was created, I think she may have an idol maybe Peter Pan girl version? I really like it, reminds me of someone close to me.
The drawing was made because watching the movie "The Hobbit: The Battle of the 5 Armies" he was struck by the way Legolas fought in battle, the character played by Orlando Bloom. I was quite impressed because, although he did it in his own way, it is distinguished that it is Legolas, of course she told me that she was his sister 😅
Your daughter is talented. I can't even draw something like that.
Thank you very much, I am also very impressed with how much your skills have improved in these last 2 years, I hope you continue to practice and make this more than a hobby.
She's gotten really better with sketching. I hope she gets to learn color blending so that she can make really 3d art
Thanks for comment. It would be great if she learned to shade to make her 3D drawings, I don't want to impose anything on her, make the learning process organic, I'll just tell her if she looks for tutorials herself.
Please pass on a message to her from me as a fellow artist? You can show her some sketches too if she's interested. But the trick to shading in 3d is colors so if she could print out a color chart, that would be great. Then from a color she chooses, she needs a light tone, a mid tone then a dark tone. She can start coloring from the lightest to darkest and that applies to most color materials, even crayons. It's opposite for pastels
So far I am seeing your comment @Hanzell and your advice is very useful, right now I transmit the message to my daughter ... Thanks for your help, God bless you 🙏🏼
I told youuu i support your daughter and her art ventures UwU
Now she is preparing for a great challenge, my grandmother asked her for a birthday present to paint her an Araguaney tree, since it is her favorite tree, and she promised her that she would do it. Now she is afraid to do it because she says that she does not want to disappoint Grandma, I do not want to pressure her and I told her that when she felt ready we could look for a reference image on the internet and it would be beautiful for her because she would do it with love.
Hmm.. what medium would she be using? Maybe i can offer a guide later on? I mean, if she had a guide, i think she would be more confident in drawing? It's better than the spartan training i had anyways ;;-;;
You mean "medium" with what materials does the drawing make? She always uses colored pencils and fine-tip markers, when she was little she used a lot of tempera and watercolors but I don't know what happened that she didn't keep using them, and well I couldn't keep buying her painting supplies.
She could use those markers and if she still has brushes, I'm pretty sure she could make a great painting. I'll check my markers if they still work then I'll try my hand on the tree
